She is also in love with her uncle Mark (Hippolyte Girardot), a brilliant photographer and the brother of her mother's second husband, and refuses to become the Duchess of Aubieres. After much discussion, she will cry like a little girl and fall into the arms of Mark. Now she can finally reveal her feelings to him.
